From: Eric Dumazet <eduma...@google.com> RST packets sent on behalf of TCP connections with TS option (RFC 7323 TCP timestamps) have incorrect TS val (set to 0), but correct TS ecr.
A > B: Flags [S], seq 0, win 65535, options [mss 1000,nop,nop,TS val 100 ecr 0], length 0 B > A: Flags [S.], seq 2444755794, ack 1, win 28960, options [mss 1460,nop,nop,TS val 7264344 ecr 100], length 0 A > B: Flags [.], ack 1, win 65535, options [nop,nop,TS val 110 ecr 7264344], length 0 B > A: Flags [R.], seq 1, ack 1, win 28960, options [nop,nop,TS val 0 ecr 110], length 0 We need to call skb_mstamp_get() to get proper TS val, derived from skb->skb_mstamp Note that RFC 1323 was advocating to not send TS option in RST segment, but RFC 7323 recommends the opposite : Once TSopt has been successfully negotiated, that is both <SYN> and <SYN,ACK> contain TSopt, the TSopt MUST be sent in every non-<RST> segment for the duration of the connection, and SHOULD be sent in an <RST> segment (see Section 5.2 for details) Fixes: 7faee5c0d514 ("tcp: remove TCP_SKB_CB(skb)->when") Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <eduma...@google.com> --- net/ipv4/tcp_output.c | 1 + 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+) diff --git a/net/ipv4/tcp_output.c b/net/ipv4/tcp_output.c index f9a8a12b62ee..1100ffe4a722 100644 --- a/net/ipv4/tcp_output.c +++ b/net/ipv4/tcp_output.c @@ -2897,6 +2897,7 @@ void tcp_send_active_reset(struct sock *sk, gfp_t priority) skb_reserve(skb, MAX_TCP_HEADER); tcp_init_nondata_skb(skb, tcp_acceptable_seq(sk), TCPHDR_ACK | TCPHDR_RST); + skb_mstamp_get(&skb->skb_mstamp); /* Send it off. */ if (tcp_transmit_skb(sk, skb, 0, priority)) NET_INC_STATS(sock_net(sk), LINUX_MIB_TCPABORTFAILED); -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
